North Myrtle Beach Sports Complex Expansion

The complex sits at the intersection of Highway 31 and Robert Edge Parkway and just finished a major 90-acre expansion in February 2026. The project added five new soccer fields and six new baseball and softball diamonds, bringing the total to 13 soccer fields and 12 ball fields, plus two new playgrounds, walking trails, parking, concession areas, and restrooms. The first tournament on the new fields brought in 70 teams from 14 states; the complex now hosts more than 40 softball and baseball tournaments a year. The city spent about $36 million in the 2025 fiscal year on the expansion and budgeted another $6.5 million for 2026 to finish the work.

Parkway Apartments, a 360-unit complex at Robert Edge Parkway and Highway 90, is already under construction. Directly across Highway 31 from the sports complex, a townhome community (sometimes called Palmetto Trace or Robert Edge Townhomes) is planned for a 30.45-acre site, with early plans showing 182 three-bedroom townhomes from Dream Finders Homes. Plans have also been approved for close to 400 additional homes on a 25.8-acre tract across from Valorous Church on Robert Edge Parkway. We could not confirm any specific new hotel or restaurant projects under construction right at the complex itself as of this writing, though areas like this typically see commercial development follow once the residential rooftops are in place.
